Adirondack style garden chair plansFree Adirondack style garden chair plans - Adirondack chairs have become very popular in the past few years. The shape and angle of these chairs is somewhere between a normal garden chair and a slovenly deck chair. The result is a surprisingly comfortable chair that, unfortunately, costs far too much. Fortunately, making an Adirondack chair is not difficult and can cost as little as $20, depending upon the wood that you use. A sensible wood choice (for duration) would be redwood or oak. However, I was more concerned about the cost of making these, so I opted for the significantly cheaper pine and spent more time varnishing. Take the two front legs and designate one end of each one as the top. Cut out a notch 5 1/2 inch long and 3/4 inch deep out of the front edge of each leg. This notch should begin 9 1/2 inch from the bottom of each leg. (So, measuring from the bottom, the notch should begin at 9 1/2 inch and end at 15 inch). This notch is used to slot in the Front Support (top) which runs along the front of the chair (behind your legs once sitting in the chair).
